Summary

Keith is trying to make himself smaller, to bury his head deeper in his knees, and Lance’s heart freezes in his chest. Anger dissipating like an exploded firework, Lance lets his hand fall limply to his side, mind blurring with static. When he tries to speak, nothing comes out but a choked noise, so he tries again.

“Keith,” he breathes. “Keith I’m not going to hurt you.”

(Keith has an abusive past, but with time and care Lance helps him become accustomed to positive touch.)

Summary

Lance was the Blue paladin-that was his thing, he piloted, made awesome one-liners, flirted, and helped save the universe on a daily basis. Lance was a tried and true hero, but an incident with a wormhole leaves behind doubles of all the paladins except for Lance, only they're not doubles-they're their alternate selves from a different reality.

Summary

Lance and Keith are rival cosplayers, who only know each other by their online usernames. They are fiercely competitive, but are also desperately attracted to each other. You'd think they would just get together already, but there's a couple of problems:1. Keith crossplays, so Lance has absolutely no idea that Keith is a boy.2. Both of them are idiots, and can't seem to figure out that that hot cosplayer they like, is also that hot guy that they drool over every day at school.
